A Night in Italy...

We had the privilege of showering Baby Cramer #2...another little boy!

Hannah is not a fan of baby showers...hence the dance party shower that I had!  We gave her two choices for her shower...a night of dancing in Davis or a couple's shower and she chose the couples shower!

We had fun planning a wonderful evening with an Italian theme to honor the fact that Baby #2 was "Made in Italy"..haha!

Hannah and Todd!

 We hosted the shower at our house and timed it so we could have everyone seated on the back patio and the heat wouldn't be too brutal!  It turned out to be a FABULOUS evening and the weather was just perfect!

Since we had so many people coming we asked each couple to bring an appetizer or dessert with an Italian theme!  We had all kinds of great food.  Jason wanted to smoke tri-tip because it's not a party at our house without a big slab of meat...so we made tri-tip crostini's with several sauces...delish!

 We put up lights outside and had just the right amount of tables and chairs...it really felt like a night in Italy!

 Hannah loved all the food and that's all that mattered

 We didn't have games or anything like a typical baby shower...just lots of music, talking, and a little dancing!

There were presents and Hannah and Todd had fun opening those up!

 We are trouble...the three of us!

 Had a fun night with my man too!

Ashley and I did most of the hosting for this shower and it all went off without a hitch!  I had Madison come over and be a mother's helper for a few hours before the shower which was a lifesaver because Addi and Tessa were only 3 and 4 months old so the evenings are the most work!  Once I got Tessa down to sleep which was shortly after everyone got there Madison went home and Tessa slept through MOST of the party.  Riley went and had a sleepover with Ollie and they had their own party!  I say Tessa slept through most of the party because there was a small incident.  The door to our bedroom has a lock...but even when locked the inside handle still turns so it's hard to know that the door is locked.  While Jason was getting ready he went in our bedroom and locked the door...but since he could open it from the inside he walked right out and closed the door behind him...oops!  I went to get my keys to drive Madison home and realized our room was locked.  Both our house keys were INSIDE our bedroom...nice!  Thankfully one of the guests was a construction guy and with a lot of banging and jamming he was able to get the door unlocked...in the middle of all the loud noise Tessa did wake up but thankfully she went right back to sleep!
